failover supprot through mod_proxy?
I have one Apache and two IIS servers, probably expanding to three IIS
servers. I need to do some load balancing between the two IIS servers.
I was hoping I could use mod_proxy on the one apache server, to do this.
----------
| Apache |
----------
|
/ \
------- -------
| IIS | | IIS |
------- -------
I don't know off anyway to do failover support for the IIS servers. Say
one goes down, which happens more then I should admit, the other will
get all the requests.
I thought mod_proxy, in apache 2.0, would support failover. Maybe I'm
wrong. Has anyone done this type of thing before?
Any help would be appreciated.

Interesting read, but I need failover support more than anything. The
article suggested using some scripting and restarting the process if a
server goes down. Anyone have any example script?
I also noticed Apache::Gateway using mod_perl can actually give failover
support. Has anyone done this before?

You can use mod_proxy and mod_rewrite as explained here:
